Sounds like it may be he driveshaft c/v joint . Go to car park or other open space and drive car on full lock either way and see if clicking changes when load transferred . If really badly worn no need to do this as you should be able to check by grasping shaft and checking c/v joint for wear.

as above but also visually check brake and suspension components
